My guitar, bass guitar, mandolin, and drum students will start in the Hal Leonard's books as well if they are unsure of a specific genre or style they wish to play. If they already know what genre they'd like to specialize in, they will be given a curated coursework to help them build the skills they need to master whatever they wish to Jam out on! My piano students work through the Faber Piano Adventure series and the classic Dozen-a-Day books until they are ready for more intermediate works and etude books. Read More

For example, bringing a song to a lesson and wanting to learn it, but instead of just figuring it out and writing it on paper for them, I let the student work on it, and maybe give them little nudges in the right direction here and there.

With every student, no matter the age, I like to get an idea of their goals intended, or help them develop goals along the way.

Of course, we will still go over the fundamentals and essential "building blocks" of music, but also develop musical personality in the process. Read More
